$60,000 Prize Pool >>

Organisers of the Mitavite International Horse Trail have announced a $60,000 prize pool will be on offer for the events flagship class, the HSBC FEI World Cup Eventing qualifier. The massive prizepool comes despite the economic downturn and a tough sponsorship market. "We are thrilled to be in a position put forward such a significant prizepool and we are confident it will be enough of an incentive to attract Australian competitors back over to Kihikihi" said event spokesperson Bruce Bason. The winner of the class will collect a $20,000 share of the prizepool which last year was claimed by Australian Olympian Megan Jones.
